Yeah Madrid aren’t anything close to best team in the world, very jammy result
Champions League Round of 16 (13th Feb - 14th Mar)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
So many teams I want out in CL, City, Liverpool, Madrid (altho of course PSG still has a chance)..
The Champions League is just Real home. They always do well here. P.S.G. were good, but lacked cojones in the key moments of the game.
What's up with all these Champions League from english clubs?

Taking out Cavani wasn’t the issue since PSG was dominating. I think he could of used Di Maria or even possibly bring in Diarra for Le Celso
How many Left Wings you want to have?
PSG lost it there in a 4 minute period. This tie is over.
One can hopeJose
It is a drubbing but nothing to be ashamed of, that Liverpool attack have been that good all season. If they had sorted out their defence in the summer they'd be up there challenging with Man City.
When we’re good, we’re really good.
Porto were hideous though. Mane’s first goal was so poor from their keeper and they left so many gaps after we scored the second.
It’s nice that we can already think about the quarter finals though. I really don’t want City.
Yeah, that’s why if you scroll down to the pages leading up to the game, I said Real still should win it convincingly today and placed a nice bet too
Are you confusing Benfica with Porto? Liverpool played Porto, we played Benfica.
Enjoyed that game. Can't wait for the return leg.
Emery should have probably taken off Mbappe instead of Cavani.

Is your username a reference to Ronaldinho? Because I keep thinking you're a Barca fan but you're not.
This Madrid side falls to City, Liverpool and Spurs imo. Leave those openings and they would get cut open.
PSG were too slow around Madrids box, they reminded me of Utd with the pass played half a stride too far or having shots crowded out.

Mane hattrick? Wow, Porto must have been awful.
Can't see PSG winning this tie. Madrid will definitely score in France.
Nevermind asensio, "el jardín" is back and all is well with the world
Getting the beers ready for Kiev
Pep is off to PSG then.
I hope you all will be happy then. At least for a while.One can hope
Was Di Maria injured?
Why did he not play?

Watching Liverpool would break your heart.
Gimme 3rd or 4th and scintillating attackers over the sewage we offer in 2nd.

Liverpool have put themselves in position to field a reserve team against Porto ahead of their league game at United 4 days later. Could be important in the top 4 race.
Nah, Poch will be. Don't say Jose as I can't see them having his defensive arse.
Best team in the world
Haha. You're right, it is, but I'm a Real fan since I was a kid.
Good impression of Dr Evil
Not sure if serious but that's just ridiculous. Individually maybe, you are only behind Barcelona and that's just because they have Messi but other than that? don't be daft.
Yes he has improved somewhat but in return he has almost stopped scoring (service blah blah).
Please don't tell people they should be on suicide watch just because they don't think we're on the elite level.
Well that was a proper spanking. That third goal was something else . The beauty of it all is Liverpool are now heading to Malaga for a five days abd we can rest players in the return leg. Also. Andy Robertson is a great player. Nine million was he ? All day la' .
Madrid definitely looked less fluid than they did last season, I think in large due to Carvajal missing (his ability to pick passes is huge) and Ronaldo and Benzema not looking great early on. Their usual suspects like Marcelo Kroos Modric etc still look good, and they still have solid depth on the bench. I wouldn't have them favourites ahead of Barca but on their day they have the quality to win.
Go support them then.
Well done tonight, the big teams really know when to step up. Prepare to lose one of your players to PSG thoughNevermind asensio, "el jardín" is back and all is well with the world

Emery looking like fking Inspector Gadget,
Now watch Real go and win it.
@broccoli You have to take the positive there. Conceição would be foolish to keep insisting on José Sá in the crucial run in for the league. Casillas has to return.
Yes and Benfica are 2 points behind Porto having only lost one league game all season. Indicative of the quality of their league.
predicted 3-1 or 4-1 in other thread so this wasn't really surprising to me. this PSG team is very overrated and they just can't win tough and important matches, yet they don't play those kind of games in France.
Madrid will probably beat them in return leg too. 2-2 or 1-2.

Everyone was saying the same about PSG and look at the score.
I swear, lately it feels like I should be praying for Barcelona to get them in the UCL legs just so we can send them home or be gone with dignity, can't stand the double letdown of Real beating anyone else and we bottling it against teams that end up breaking down when they face Real Madrid.
